Hi I'm interested in collecting lots of different remedies for babies and children.
Please share:
1. Peat remedies that would be safe for children and babies
2. Remedies that worked for your children - Peat or non-Peat
3. Recipes and other ideas
These remedies could be for any kind of illness. I thought if enough people were interested we could get a collection of ideas that people could refer to when their child is ill.
I will start:
Homemade Nappy Rash Cream (tried and tested)
Coconut Oil 100ml
Beeswax 0.5 tblsp
Zinc Oxide 2.5 tblsp
Vitamin E - optional
Lavender Oil 10 drops (not optional - this makes it work!)
Method -
melt CO and beeswax on a low heat (beeswax has a lower smoke point that CO)
add lavender oil
add ZO and whisk well
add Vit E
whisk again before decanting
And a question - aspirin for babies? Good idea or not?
Thanks!
